While TVs continue to be more affordable, getting a good deal on your first purchase or when you’re due for an upgrade can be tough. However, I use several strategies to save money, which you can emulate. 1 Understanding the Features I Need The first tip I use to save money is to understand what I need from the upgrade in terms of features. But first, you must understand the basic TV terms used by manufacturers so that you can understand what your needs are. For instance, when purchasing a new TV in 2025, you don’t need 8K resolution since…

I love my smart TV. I use it every day, and it’s wonderful. But that doesn’t mean it’s perfect. In fact, it’s far from it, and I wish it had these features. Then it would be perfect. 1 Perfect Black Levels, Higher Brightness, and No OLED Burn-In Risk Many consider OLED the best display technology. It has deeper blacks, better contrast ratios, faster response times (for gaming), and wider viewing angles than other display technologies. However, despite being considered the best, it isn’t perfect. One of the major concerns with OLED panels is the risk of burn-in, especially considering that…

There’s really no escaping it: the Huawei Mate XT Ultimate Design is an eye-wateringly expensive smartphone. So much so, in fact, the cost of a return flight to Dubai to pick one up in person will set you back less than the device itself. That’s one of the few countries outside of China you can actually get hold of one, as being stuck on the software back foot continues to hamper the firm’s Western appeal. However, being able to concertina a 10.2in tablet in enough places so that it slips into a trouser pocket softens the blow. A lot. The…

Many of us have already had our lives impacted in some way by the rise of AI, including those of us working in creative fields. And if ChatGPT’s new creative writing model lives up to the hype, even Stephen King may have to watch his back. Sam Altman Claims ChatGPT Can Now Write Good Fiction ChatGPT is now capable of creative writing, with a new model trained just for that purpose. This week, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman posted a short story written by ChatGPT on X, claiming it proves that ChatGPT is now “good at creative writing.” You can read…

A great dive watch is more than just a timekeeper – it’s a symbol of adventure, resilience, and precision engineering. Originally designed for professional divers, these watches are built to handle extreme underwater conditions, with high water resistance, luminous dials for low-light visibility, and unidirectional rotating bezels for tracking dive times. Over the years, they’ve evolved from essential tools to everyday icons, worn as much for their rugged charm as for their functionality. Nowadays, luxury dive watches offer impeccable craftsmanship, premium materials, and cutting-edge movements, often boasting deep-sea capabilities and innovative tech, while, at the more affordable end, there are…

After a few days of confusion, Google has officially confirmed issues with both the second-generation Chromecast and Chromecast Audio. Google Says There’s Currently No Fix to Casting Problems Reddit The problem occurs when you try to cast audio or video from a smart device to the larger TV screen. When attempting to send content, you’ll see an “Untrusted Device” error with the option to dismiss it. Google recently emailed users: We’re contacting you because of a disruption affecting Chromecast (2nd gen) and Chromecast Audio devices. We apologize for the issue and understand your frustration. We are working to roll out…

The big streaming services are increasingly focusing on original programming rather than old reruns. However, the problem with that is making people sit up and take notice of these original shows. Which is especially difficult for those people not already subscribed to the streaming service hosting them. Andor Episodes Are Available on YouTube One possible solution to this quandary is making shows available on other platforms after a certain amount of time has elapsed. Which seems to be a strategy Disney is testing with one of its many Star Wars offerings. The first three episodes of what many people regard…

I’ve tested far too many robot vacuums. And as much as I love the machines, most new models come with a huge docking station to hold debris or mop water. It’s great if you’ve got the room, but not so great if you’re tight on space. iRobot’s new Roomba 205 robot vac is a compact device without the huge station. But you’ll still hardly ever have to empty it, thanks to a brand new debris compactor feature. This robot vac is the first to cram a mechanical debris compactor inside its shell – effectively giving dust bunnies the squeeze of their lives.…
